DEVELOPING SPEED ABILITY IN CHILDREN AGED 5–6 WITH PHYSICAL DISABILITIES THROUGH ADAPTIVE PHYSICAL EDUCATION TECHNOLOGIES
Keywords:
adaptive physical education, speed ability, preschool children, physical disabilities, sports science, motor development.Abstract
The development of physical qualities in early childhood is a key task of sports science and physical education pedagogy. Speed ability is one of the fundamental motor qualities that determines the efficiency of movement execution, reaction time, and overall physical readiness. Children aged 5–6 with physical disabilities often experience limitations in motor activity, which negatively affects the formation of speed ability and reduces their participation in physical education.
This study aims to scientifically substantiate the effectiveness of adaptive physical education technologies for developing speed ability in preschool children with physical disabilities. The research is based on theoretical analysis, pedagogical modeling, and observation. The findings indicate that systematic application of individualized, safe, and play-based speed-oriented exercises contributes to improved reaction speed, motor coordination, and functional activity. The results may be applied in preschool educational institutions and adaptive physical education programs.
